I'm not sure what you're talking about. I think Abdelkader plays well with Zetterberg and Dats based on his ability to win races, win board battles, get it back smoothly (to them), and go to the net. The issue, the biggest issue, why I want Alfredsson/Jurco there, is because Abby's finish is so poor. It's awful. He gets so many chances, but can't bury whatsoever. Abby gets grade A chances. It's frustrating to watch.
Since I've been on HF, I'm not sure if anyone's backed up Abdelkader as much as me. I think he has another level, but that finish needs to develop. It may not though.
